This site seems like it has a fairly active crypto group, so I was curious if anyone here mines any type of cryptocurrency. I've thought about getting into it a few times, but now that most currencies are pretty low, the mining equipment is also fairly cheap and I currently have access to "free" electricity, so that would defiantly help the profitability. So if you do mine, please let me know what current and, what type of equipment you use and, any tips or suggestions you have for me. Thanks, Y'all!

Hey,I was mining ETH, but when the price dropped it was no longer economically feasible to do so. In other words, the cost of the electricity to run the rig was higher than the value of ETH mined. The equipment had six cards. Everything on it was purchased separately and built by a friend. He ran the rig in his basement in Colorado so last winter we were saving him a bit on heating costs by the warmth coming off the equipment.

If you can get really cheap equipment and free electricity, then you might have a chance at a worthwhile enterprise.

I have something like 30 cards mining right now. I have free electricity until the end of April, so I keep them going. No idea what it would cost to run this otherwise.

I also had a GTX1080 but it bit the dust. I bought it used and it has been a POS. It needed a fan replacement right away, and now it crashes my system after running for about 2 hours so I have it disconnected.

I run linux on 2 system, one with 4 cards, one with 7 cars. SMOS on a rig with 13 cards. Windows 10 on a rig with 3 cards (used to be 4 but my 1080 is crap), and 3 cards on my main PC running windows 10.

"free electricity" sounds like solar power, but only until April? Do you know something about the Sun that no one else knows? Or maybe hydraulic power of some sort, but again, does the water stop running after April?
